  1. Investigational New Drug (IND) OrientationResponsibilities of IND Sponsor-Investigators MICHR IND/IDE Assistance Program (MIAP)

  2. Definitions • Sponsor is an individual, company, academic institution, or other organization that takes responsibility for and initiates a clinical investigation. The sponsor is not the “funding organization” by FDA definitions. • Investigator is an individual under whose immediate direction a drug is administered or dispensed • Sponsor-Investigator is an individual who both initiates and conducts an investigation. The requirements/responsibilities under this part include both those applicable to an investigator and a sponsor.

  3. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS • The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) gives the FDA authority to regulate drugs and biologics • Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) • 21 CFR Part 312: Investigational New Drugs • Contains procedures and requirements governing the use of investigational new drugs • Applies to all clinical investigations of products that are subject to section 505 of the FD&C Act • Website for INDs: • IND Regulations

  4. Regulations 21 CFR §11 Electronic Records; Electronic Signatures 21 CFR §50 FDA (21 CFR) Protection of Human Subjects 21 CFR §54 Financial Disclosure by Clinical Investigators 21 CFR §56 Institutional Review Boards 21 CFR §58 Good Laboratory Practices 21 CFR §211, § 810 Good Manufacturing Practices 21 CFR §1271 Good Tissue Practices

  7. FDA RESPONSIBILITIES OF IND INVESTIGATORS • Conduct study in compliance with GCP, protocol, & applicable IND/IDE regulations • Ensure informed consent of each subject is obtained (and retained) • Personally conduct or supervise the investigation • Protect the rights, safety, and welfare of participants • Ensure adequate medical care for the study participants • Obtain necessary approvals from IRB • Maintain and retain drug/device disposition and patient case history records • Provide written reports to the IRB, as required • Ensure changes are not implemented without prospective IRB/FDA approval • Promptly report serious adverse events to the sponsor, IRB, and FDA • Furnish Progress reports and Safety reports • Ensure all study team members are informed about their obligations noted above

  8. FDA RESPONSIBILITIES OF IND SPONSOR-INVESTIGATORSIN ADDITION TO THE INVESTIGATOR RESPONSIBILITIES,SPONSOR-INVESTIGATORS ARE REQUIRED TO: • Select qualified investigators at other institutions for multi-site trials • Provide information to other investigators and study staff to ensure that the study is performed properly • Ensure proper monitoring of the study • Ensure the study is performed in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocol • Submit necessary amendments/supplements to FDA • Ensure that FDA and all participating investigators are promptly informed of significant new adverse effects or risks • Maintain adequate records • Maintain proper control of the study drug/device

  9. FDA Form 1571 (CFR 21 §312.23(a)(1)(i-ix)) • Contractual agreement between sponsor and FDA • Contains name of person responsible for conduct and progress of the study (Item 15) • Contains name of person responsible for the review and evaluation of information relevant to the safety of the drug (Item 16) • Sponsor or sponsor’s authorized representative agrees to conduct investigation in accordance with all applicable regulatory requirements (Item 17)

  12. IND Maintenance(IND Amendments) • IND Amendment (Documents submitted to an active IND) • The 4 major types are… • Protocol Amendments (21 CFR §312.30) • Information Amendments (21 CFR § 312.31) • IND Safety Reports (21 CFR § 312.32) • IND Annual Reports (21 CFR § 312.33)

  13. FDA Submissions - Responsibilities To FDA

  14. Amendments - New Protocol • New study that is not covered by a protocol already contained in the IND • Must submit the new protocol to the FDA • The new protocol can begin after both conditions have been met: • The protocol has been approved by the IRB • The sponsor has submitted the protocol to the FDA for its review • There is no need to wait for the 30 day review period at the FDA unless we have specifically asked the FDA for advice on the protocol content • Contact MIAP early to discuss regulatory strategy

  15. Amendments - Changes in a Protocol • A sponsor shall submit a protocol amendment describing any change in a Phase I protocol that significantly affects the safety of subjects or any change in a Phase 2 or 3 protocol that significantly affects the safety of subjects, the scope of the investigation, or the scientific quality of the study • Examples: • Any increase in drug dosage or duration of exposure of any individual subjects • Any significant increase in the number of subjects under study • Any significant change in the design of a protocol (the addition or dropping of a control group) • The addition of a new test, or procedure, that is intended to improve monitoring for, or reduce the risk of, a side effect or adverse event; or the dropping of a test intended to monitor safety

  16. Amendments – Changes in a protocol (continued) • A protocol change may be implemented provided the following two conditions are met: • The change has been approved by the IRB with responsibility for review and approval of the study • The sponsor has submitted the change to FDA for its review • No need to wait 30 days unless we have specifically asked for feedback • Contact MIAP early in process to discuss regulatory strategy • IRB Minor Amendment: URGENT REQUEST • PLEASE contact MIAP immediately when starting this process

  24. Annual Report • Due to the FDA within 60 calendar days of the IND Anniversary Date (date IND was deemed “safe to proceed”) • MIAP will contact study coordinator and PI approximately 60 days before the report is due to obtain required information • Patient demographics • Study information (number of patients enrolled, number of sites, etc.) • Adverse events • Any other new information • MIAP will complete the annual report template and send to study coordinator and PI to review • MIAP will send final annual report to the FDA • Upload FDA annual report into eResearch application (ORIO)

  25. Monitoring theTrial • Clinical Trial Monitoring is required for clinical trials conducted under an IND • Clinical Trial Monitorexamines quality of trial conduct: • Perform on-site (if indicated, also off-site) evaluations of trial-related activities • Identify deviations in protocol conduct • Review documents for Adverse Events • Drug accountability – see also handout of IDS monitoring • Extent and frequency of monitoring as appropriate: • Length, complexity, subject enrollment and other aspects of the trial

  26. MonitoringtheTrial: DSMB • Additional measure of human subject protection • Evaluates accumulating data from a clinical trial • Generally, established by the sponsor • Select members, should be independent • Charter generally written by sponsor, may have consultation by members • Recommendations regarding the conduct and design of the trial (safety and efficacy) • Does not visit sites or substitute for clinical trial monitors • Send DSMB reports to the IRB for review

  27. The FDA Calls – now what? • Make immediate internal notifications • IRB • Regulatory Affairs • MIAP • Review UMHS Policy 01-01-020 “External/Third Party Reviews • IRBMED ORIO Reporting • “As soon as possible after notification of the audit and prior to a site visit by an external oversight entity (e.g. sponsor, FDA).
